81 – Admissions (3)

Many students gathered ahead of the entrance ceremony.

In addition to the students who came in after only taking the written test, there were many students who survived the practical test.

When they saw me, they pretended to know me, or they talked quietly in whispers.

Or to express gratitude.

“Thanks to you, I was able to survive the practical test last time, thank you.”

“yes.”

After receiving such greetings, I quickly entered the academy.

Big, grand, cool, sophisticated.

The academy had a high level of completion among the buildings I had seen.

Sit anywhere inside the auditorium.

Then, I waited until the entrance ceremony started, but Asher naturally sat down next to me.

“…Why did you leave it behind and go first?”

“I hope you are sleeping well.”

Asher had been waiting all night for me to write the speech yesterday.

I don’t know what I was trying to do, but I fell asleep before I finished writing the speech, so nothing happened.

Thanks to that, Asher, who woke up late in the morning, was rolling hard on the bed.

Franc also sat down after likewise.

Rubbing her eyes, she was holding a piece of paper in my hand.

“Even if you stare at it, nothing will change.”

“I’m thinking about taking it and burning it right away.”

“I brought it formally, it’s been a long time since I memorized it all.”

Frank finally gave up and lay down in a chair.

I asked Fran, who was wrapping her hair, where she was sick.

“The royal family should be hostile anyway, so what do they care about?”

“That doesn’t matter, but accusations in the field of an important education called the academy are unacceptable!”

Fran had the attitude that the field of education should be respected.

That’s not understandable.

However, it was also a good opportunity, and I didn’t intend to shoot the royal family outright anyway.

In moderation, it is to determine who we should be the main enemy of.

Subsequently, the hero, the swordsman, and Raeli sat next to each other.

Because the hero or the swordsman had a social status, he could not afford to come right away because he had met the professors and nobles.

But Raeli wouldn’t have that restriction, so why is it so late?

“Haaa… . I overslept.”

I just overslept.

At least Fran has a reason for staying up all night with me, and you’re not doing that either.

Looking at her with pitiful eyes, Raeli took off her pretense.

“Me, I had something important happen yesterday.”

“what is that?”

“I can’t tell you because it’s private.”

I thought so.

It’s not like the world is going to end just because you overslept anyway.

That’s how all the warriors’ party gathered and sat down, and this attracted attention.

“Are they all gathered?”

“Except for one student, the students got an S grade, so their grades must be near the top, right?”

“All the students with good skills gathered together just because they were playing with each other.”

It is subtly becoming an object of envy.

Basically, even if it’s just a hero or a swordsman, I already have a lot of reputation, and I’ve become a hero in the city these days.

Still, the news from the city hadn’t been delivered yet, and the gaze toward me was only that of a grateful person who sacrificed his lifespan, and did not say that I was a hero who saved the city.

In addition, there must be a basic prejudice that only a student at the academy could have saved the city.

Even if a similar name comes out, even if it’s the same person, you’ll be mistaken.

rather this is better

I’m not the kind of person who likes to be pampered by someone.

And there were people who couldn’t understand this kind of envy.

Especially when it comes to looking at me.

They did not hide their envy and jealousy.

“You say you risked your life and sacrificed, but you mean your ability is at the bottom? Even the body measurements alone are all F. Then you will be paid soon.”

“Isn’t it actually really strong?”

“My mana is F-level, the bottom, but where does that power come from? It’s something you use your life to pull. I’m hanging out with them right now, but I’ll be the first to fall away.”

The students who were talking about it were unfavorable eyes.

In severe cases, to the point of fertilization.

“What would that say to someone who sacrificed for others?”

“I was just giving a sober assessment. If you don’t have basic mana in your body, you must have used strong magic even if you used your life span.”

There was an argument like that, but it didn’t easily turn into a fight.

There were not one or two people who were friendly to me, and among them there were many high-ranking nobles who were counts or higher.

So even if they tried to put me down, there was a limit.

If things go wrong, there will be a commotion from the entrance ceremony, but no student can handle it.

However, there are nobles who don’t even have to worry about that kind of notice.

A boy with all kinds of colorful decorations on his clothes approaches.

Since the face is not remembered, it was certain that it would not play an important role in the future.

He spat out these words even though he was pleased with the Sword Saint.

“Reinhardt, I didn’t know you were hanging out with people who didn’t fit your status.”

Fran was dumbfounded by such a quarrel.

“Then who is the right person?”

“Only him and me, and the hero and the royal family.”

His overbearing attitude gave me a rough idea of his identity.

The idea that there is nothing above you but royalty.

Who else could be besides the duke’s family and nobles, who were in the ranks of one or all people?

There are only two dukes in the kingdom.

Rousselmani and Gloucester.

…Looking at it like this, it’s okay that the current swordsman has changed, but for some reason, the personalities of the dukes were all different.

Is education in the family wrong?

Sword Saint didn’t even want to answer, but he spat out the words with the attitude that he would treat them roughly.

“Then don’t regret it, Heind.”

“regret? What am I to do?”

“This advice is given in consideration of Jung, who was a friend in the past.”

Haynd laughed.

“Is that advice? It doesn’t seem necessary or worth listening to.”

“If you don’t like it, don’t listen, because you will be able to handle the end.”

“You are needlessly hostile, I came here just to say hello. I just pointed it out because there were impurities around it.”

“I’m not hostile, I’m giving advice out of genuine concern for you.”

“Ttsk, it must have been stained after playing with Cheonmin.”

Heind shook his hands and turned around.

The Sword Master muttered as he looked at his back.

“…The suicidal behavior is also diverse.”

“Ugh! Anyway, why are nobles doing that!”

Frank, the only non-noble with the brave, turned his head away complaining.

By the way, I also agreed with the last words of the Sword Master.

Sword Saint or Asher, even if they behaved badly last time, it was because of their memories of the past.

Frank still continued to complain, as if his anger was not resolved.

“It’s unfair to say that even those guys are aristocrats in class 1.”

“Half? Are you in the same class then? Didn’t that guy even see the performance?”

“It’s a certainty if it’s a high-ranking noble like a duke. In fact, Reinhardt who saw the actual performance is strange.”

That’s right.

Class 1 is reserved for various prospects, warriors, and high-ranking nobles.

So Reinhardt, the son of the duke, did not have to take the test.

Of course, his intention seemed to be to get the second seat and take care of honor and great achievements.

The plan itself isn’t bad.

Even with his skills, there was no one to compare him with other than the hero.

However, other than Reinhardt with this personality, most high-ranking nobles naturally passed and entered Class 1.

I don’t guarantee that everyone will be like that, but if all the high-ranking nobles with a certain number of heads and strong powers had that attitude, it would be annoying in the future.

When I said that, everyone reacted badly.

It was because it was a story that someone who struggled and barely entered class 1, and those who didn’t even go through that hardship would come in as a free ride and look down on us.

“…Shall I kill them all?”

I pressed Asher’s head, who was already making a bloody noise.

She, who showed a spleen appearance, was crushed in vain.

“Nah.”

“There is nothing like that. Asher.”

The moment we made up our minds to enmity with the royal family, the high-ranking aristocrats had to side with us.

It was difficult to carelessly touch the high-ranking nobles who had strong soldiers and knights one by one.

“…Then, should I leave it alone?”

“I didn’t say that I would look at it like that.”

So what are you going to do?

No matter how strong and strong the knights are, will the knights fight me to the end?

Even if I harass them moderately with black magic, they will put their heads down and ask for forgiveness.

Confucius, who are still mere puppies, are not the head of a household with the weight and conviction that must carry the family, and you just have to step on them yourself.

“Or you guys can step on it yourself.”

“yes?!”

“Really!”

Both Fran and Raeli were delighted.

…How could he make such a face?

you know what

Even if it takes lives, it doesn’t mean that you don’t have the power to deal with it.

“It would be okay if I hit it with a sword sheath.”

“If I imprison him in a barrier, won’t he ask for forgiveness on his own?”

“…I’m going to hit you with a spear.”

While they were having a bloody conversation, the entrance ceremony finally started.

The entrance ceremony is a typical story.

The dean gives a speech, the vice-president gives a speech, the representative of the faculty makes a speech, and after appropriately formal procedures are over, the speech of the senior student continues.

And there my name was called.

“Chief, Argal. Please come up on the podium.”

Breaking the convention, he placed another person as the chief instead of the hero.

It was an unconventional event, so all eyes were on me.

One thing is clear, the faces of the students who gave me bad evaluations were crumpled, and the students who were favored by me congratulated them purely.

On the way up, the paper on which the speech was written was burned.

I memorized it anyway, so I didn’t have to watch it anymore.

He confidently opened his mouth, directing his eyes toward the students, the professors, and the aristocrats observing the entrance ceremony.

“I would like to thank everyone who participated in the entrance ceremony.”

This is not what I am talking about.

It was something the dean, the host of the entrance ceremony, had to say, and it wasn’t something that I, the attendee, would have put in, but I put it in just out of courtesy.

After that, throw rice cakes.

“Undeservedly, I entered the academy with the position of chief. It is not at all a coincidence that I became the chief despite the fact that there is a student who comes to the position of the chief according to the custom of being a hero.”

is to raise questions.

In any case, how did I become the chief, overtaking the warrior who occupies the chief position?

That’s what I asked.

answer this

“It’s because of the accident in the practical exam.”

At first, the faculty was agitated.

In a way, it was the professors who supervised the exam.

No matter how much external pressure forced them to take this test, the primary responsibility rested with them.

I couldn’t help but be agitated when I brought up sensitive words in a place like this.

“Monsters flocked to the test. Like a mountain of low-level demons that even knights can’t guarantee to win, there are a lot of intermediate-level demons that even warriors can’t handle, and even high-level demons that even professors can’t handle.”

Not everyone knows the full story of the practical exam.

Only a few knew the details of what was happening there.

That’s why most of the people here, except for the person concerned, fell into astonishment.

No one here could handle high-level demons.

The serious situation was revealed in detail, and the accusation continued.

“Then who is to blame for this disaster?”
